It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Clifford Elvin Easton. Cliff passed away on February 13, 2019 at the age of 92 years. He was predeceased by his parents Irene and Alex; an infant son; brother Stanley Easton and wife Betty; brother Elroy Easton and wife Yvette; and brothers-in-law, Garnet Ketcheson and Thomas Walker. Cliff is survived by his loving wife of 63 years, Marlene (Delarue); children, David (Cheryl), Suzanne Guenzel (Ralph), Michael (Loreen), and Jason (Patti); grandchildren, Carter and Denae, Braeden (Jess), Keenan (Britt) and Kelsey, Finley and Sophia, Keith (Sareena ) and Cole (Crystal); sister Betty Walker, of Wawota; and he will be lovingly remembered by numerous nieces and nephews. Cliff was born on July 27, 1926 on the family farm at Highview Sask. He spent the first part of his adult life working on the family farm with his dad. Cliff had an entrepreneurial spirit and built, owned and operated the first movie theatre in Wawota. Shortly after this, he also became the first Administrator of the Wawota Hospital. Cliff and Marlene were married in 1955 and together raised four children. In 1966 the family moved to Redvers where Cliff became the Redvers Hospital and Centennial Haven Administrator. He proudly volunteered his time with the Redvers Activity Centre. In 1990 Cliff and Marlene moved to Kenosee Lake. In retirement, Cliff continued two of his passions, golfing and curling, which he enjoyed for the rest of his life. He spent many hours meticulously refinishing and building furniture, which was a source of pride for him. In 2010 Cliff and Marlene relocated to Regina to be closer to their family and enjoy condo life and make new friends. Funeral Mass will be held at Christ the King R.C. Church, 3239 Garnet St, Regina, SK on February 28, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. Interment will take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate a donation to Soul’s Harbour Rescue Mission, 3535 8th Ave., Regina, SK., S4T 0T6, or a charity of your choice.
